Aggy just ran out of masks.

F**king aggy "space lab" ...

They lobbied and whined to get the *awesome* Shuttle Mission Simulator sent up to aggyland.   And, it has sat *UNBOXED AND COLLECTING DUST* since 2012.

I have friends who are trying to get aggy to release it back to the Lone Star Flight Museum (at Ellington, near JSC) for at least a static display.  I'm sure it'll have aggy shit plastered all over it ("donated by the amazing and awesome generosity of aggy", etc.).  It also turns out that aggy stored all of the *priceless* equipment in a *NON CLIMATE-CONTROLLED FACILITY*, which makes returning it to any sort of working condition almost a non-starter.

This effort was over a year ago, without any updates, so I can only presume they were unsuccessful, either in getting aggy to release it or getting the funds necessary to restore it from its aggy-overseen-and-deteriorating condition back to something that someone would be willing to actually pay to see.

The athletics revenue and expense data required pursuant to Title IX for the fiscal year ending Aug 31, 2019 is now available to anyone wanting to view the data. This is operating revenue, not total revenue. Total revenue would include capital gifts and donations for facilities (such as the SEZ donations).

https://ope.ed.gov/athletics/#/

Here are the Top 40 for operating revenue (all sports). Where revenues and expenses net out to zero, it is an indicator the athletics department is operating at a loss and the school is subsidizing athletics from general revenues.

Wait until the total numbers contained in the NCAA school athletics financials start being discussed. Adding in UT's $125mil + capital gifts for the SEZ project, UT Austin's profit will be more than the operating revenue of all but the top 6 schools in the nation.

Texas A&M is the only university at SXSW’s Interactive Conference delivering comprehensive programming by incorporating high-profile thought leaders in compelling discussions, one-of-a-kind interactive exhibits and solution-focused brand experiences.

Too bad SXSW got cancelled. aggy can no longer crown themselves the champion of delivering comprehensive programming by incorporating high-profile thought leaders in compelling discussions, one-of-a-kind interactive exhibits and solution-focused brand experiences.

If individuals from Texas A&M made any difference whatsoever to the quality of the U.S. military effectiveness, even in the slightest, individuals participating in ROTC on the A&M campus would be required to serve after graduation and not provided with the option of not serving their country. 

The reason a specific law exists that exempts aggy ROTC students from serving in the military after graduation is that senior military leaders don’t see any importance for them to serve. If aggys were in any way better suited, better prepared, or had a superior record of military service, military leaders would ensure every aggy ROTC graduate served. In reality, just the opposite exists. 

I know it hurts the feelings of aggys around the world and the fact is that if ROTC was ended on the A&M campus today not only would the abilities of the U.S. military not be negatively affected, the argument could easily be made that military effectiveness would improve through the reallocation of resources to schools where ROTC graduates actually serve and not just run around playing fake army, demanding people thank them for their non-service.

I would never dismiss the real contributions aggy has made in the way of military service, but in typical aggy fashion; the poster vastly OVERSTATES said contributions by making it seem as if aggy was uniquely responsible for being off fighting wars and defending the country. Utee94's post is the perfect retort.

One does not have to dismiss anything to unabashedly ridicule the claiming of moral superiority based upon attendance at a state supported cow college. The claims of grandiose aggy military contributions are largely based on lies, fairy tales and redneck ignorance.

Their fraudulent claim of there having been more aggys serving as officers during WWII than West Point and Annapolis graduates combined is but one example.

aggy athletics has largely sucked for the entire existence of aggy athletics primarily because it is managed by aggys. aggy culture differs from mainstream culture in many ways. An objective evaluation of how aggy culture differs from the mainstream and why aggys trail the levels of accomplishment of the mainstream would seem a reasonable suggestion. But it ain't never gonna happen. Because aggys are aggys. End of story.

Like their belief that Texas hoarded players before scholarship limits which led to our success, when they had more players on scholarship than we did and were a driving force behind conference scholarship limits put in place before ncaa limits.
